the 11 of 12 given Wordle words:
heat, fantasy found movies desire dark night hand chain,
duvet (a soft quilt filled with down, feathers 
used instead of an upper sheet and blankets)
breath

Great day with the heat and cloud cover
Fantasy found  in movies very inviting
They who desire from the dark night before
Hunger registered and patiently waiting  

Mother bird at hand taking a responsibility
Flies in every now and then very much aware
Measures of love in earnest and sincerity
Chain of events enacting a mother's care

Sleepy heads in the nest show different reactions
Young people under the duvet are often reluctant
To spring out of bed with Mother's presence
A ticking off often preceded against show of objections

When dislodged from their comfort zones
Mother's sigh of relief breathed with satisfaction
There is that lone voice of moderation
Mothers to the rescue a patron of a great invention

  1. Enjoyed this very much, Hank. Especially these lines:
    "Sleepy heads in the nest show different reactions
    Young people under the duvet are often reluctant
    To spring out of bed with Mother's presence
    A ticking off often preceded against show of objections"
    For me, there's the juxtapositioning of the tiny bird heads, mouths open on some, clamoring for food, others sleepily nodding or being shoved by more aggressive ones....and then the idea of young kids hiding under the duvet covers as their mom says it's time to get up! At least, that's what I'm picturing -- and smiling.

  2. This poem evokes so many reactions, just like the sleepy heads in the nest...

  3. Wonderful... and we all learn how much motherly care has brought us where we are.
